Here’s some interesting trivia about the song: This is the first single mixed and mastered by the band themselves, with Ben taking the helm and some additional mixing/mastering by Michael. The somewhat distorted harmony vocals were recorded on a 1960’s era rotary telephone that was converted into a microphone by Michael. The band originally referred to this song as “Loop Jam”, since it was built on a foundation of guitar and bass loops. If you listen closely in the first verse you can hear samples of a toy gun firing off in time with the “stray bullets” line.

Did anyone watch us on Ustream while we were in the studio with this one? What do you remember most? Did it turn out how you expected?

The level of production on this song is simply awesome. The toy gun, the random dark piano note, the reversed guitar, the organ, the sick synth solo with accompanying guitar feedback, the shadow notes on the snare drum, it’s all epic.
I remember from Ustream it sounded cool, but probably not my favorite, but it’s definitely shot up since then.
